After having been in the last house for about 4 years, Mum got itchy feet and we moved to the other side of the town. This meant a change of school, and the start of me no longer enjoying school as much.
We moved to a larger house. So this time I actually had a larger room with which to set out all my space Lego. I had quite a large amount, so I had an almost permanent Moonscape set up. (For anyone who knows what this means, it was 7 boards, 4 crater and 3 road/landing pad). This was really all I ever wanted to do in the evening and weekends, since I had left all my friends behind, and we weren't located in a road which was just full of families similar to ours.
I went to the school just down the road, joining a class that again had a split of year groups in it. I made some friends, but also started to get bullied. I don't really know why, but I just seemed to get picked to be bullied. I tried to make friends with them, but it didn't work.
My best friend from my previous school did move close to us, but went to a different school, and I made a new friend at the new Sunday School I started to go to. He also went to the same school as Dean, and I often spent weekends playing with them. I also, rather naively, assumed that as it was the closest Middle School, I would be going to the same one they did.
This was also the time I started to find my sister rather annoying. She made friends in her class, but seemed to start following me around whenever she could. At first I didn't really mind too much, but eventually it got quite annoying, because any time I was playing with my friends, she could sometimes try to join in, even ditching her own friends to do so. This continued well into my teens.
